Exogenous-endogenous surfactant interaction yields heterogeneous spreading in complex branching networks
Richard Mcnair, Fernando Temprano-Coleto, François J. Peaudecerf +4
Experiments have shown that surfactant introduced to a liquid-filled maze can find the solution path. We reveal how the maze-solving dynamics arise from interactions between the ad…
Unsteady evolution of slip and drag in surfactant-contaminated superhydrophobic channels
Samuel D. Tomlinson, Frédéric Gibou, Paolo Luzzatto-Fegiz +3
Recognising that surfactants can impede the drag reduction resulting from superhydrophobic surfaces (SHSs), we investigate the impact of spatio-temporal fluctuations in surfactant…
Real-time Manipulation of Liquid Droplets using Photo-responsive Surfactant
Xichen Liang, Kseniia M. Karnaukh, Lei Zhao +12
Fast and programmable transport of liquid droplets on a solid substrate is desirable in microfluidic, thermal, biomedical, and energy devices. Past research has focused on designin…
A model for slip and drag in turbulent flows over superhydrophobic surfaces with surfactant
Samuel D. Tomlinson, François Peaudecerf, Fernando Temprano-Coleto +4
Superhydrophobic surfaces (SHSs) can reduce the friction drag in turbulent flows. In the laminar regime, it has been shown that trace amounts of surfactant can negate this drag red…
